That is so misleading. They didn't almost do anything. I would say it was a potential strategy but no way would have been considered a real possibility by the 49ers. It's like saying I almost met jack Nicholson because I was at the same lakers game he was at. Simply a sensationalized headline to get the rumor mill going

This doesn't make Jimmy H look very good when he says he didn't know anything and his owner acknowledges there were talks. Big power struggle going on in San Fran with Jimmy and mgmt.

Go Blue!!

Yes, but it makes you wonder if it wasn't Harbaugh that actually got this story rolling in the first place and then acted like he didn't know anything about it. That would be so him. Could you imagine him trying to work with Brandon? They'd last 2 days together. We need SF to get a chase of the cheaps and further alienate Harbaugh so we can make him HC and AD at Michigan in 2015. Oh what the hell, President too. ;)

His personal assistant was Lombardi's son. Lombardi was the GM for the Browns at the time this happened. He doesn't get along with 49ers front office. His arrogant and thinks he can make anyone a winnner.

I think he actually considered this!

I think he may have a point considering what he did with Stanford and now with SF. And let's face it, there isn't a successful coach on the planet who isn't arrogant. The Douche Meter jumps off the charts with him at times but I've slowly gotten over that. Rodriguez and Hoke saw to that.
